DTP Team Demolishes Illegal Construction in Kurukshetra..

Kurukshetra : In a significant move to curb unauthorized urban development, the District Town Planning (DTP) team conducted a demolition drive in Kurukshetra, targeting illegal constructions within an unauthorized colony. Acting on complaints and internal investigations, the team arrived at the site accompanied by police personnel and municipal workers to ensure a smooth and secure operation.

The illegal structures, which were reportedly being constructed without any government approval or proper land-use clearance, were promptly brought down. Officials from the DTP Department said the builders had violated various urban planning norms and continued development even after receiving warnings from the authorities.

Residents in the area expressed mixed reactions. While some appreciated the administration’s strict enforcement of the law to maintain organized urban growth, others criticized the sudden action, claiming they were unaware of the illegal status of the plots they had invested in. However, DTP officers clarified that notices had been served well in advance, and the construction was being carried out in clear violation of planning guidelines.

The district administration has repeatedly emphasized the importance of verifying land records and approvals before investing in any property. Officials warned potential buyers against falling for misleading claims by unscrupulous developers who promote unauthorized colonies under false pretenses.

This demolition drive is part of a broader effort by the Haryana government to regulate urban expansion and eliminate unplanned settlements that strain civic infrastructure and disrupt regional planning. The authorities aim to prevent illegal colonies from becoming a burden on the city’s resources and to ensure that all development takes place in accordance with approved master plans.

The DTP department has also indicated that similar action will be taken in other parts of the district where unauthorized constructions have been reported. The administration has urged the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious construction activities to the authorities.

Such strict actions reflect the administration’s commitment to law enforcement and urban discipline. Officials stated that legal steps would also be taken against the developers responsible for initiating and promoting these illegal constructions.
